The adventure of the hero is the adventure of being alive.
More Quotes from Joseph Campbell:
Marriage is not a love affair. A love affair is a totally different thing. A marriage is a commitment to that which you are. That person is literally your other half. And you and the other are one. A love affair isnt that. That is a relationship of pleasure, and when it gets to be unpleasurable , its off. But a marriage is a life commitment, and a life commitment means the prime concern of your life. If marriage is not the prime concern, you are not married.Joseph Campbell

Joseph Campbell

Joseph Campbell
